Good morning buddies!!
I'm currently enjoying my second day off, *gasp*, but there hasn't been much relaxing going on. Yesterday was spent going to the gym, renewing my drivers license & tags and grocery shopping. Whew! I was able to enjoy an evening at home with the husband and kiddos. I haven't had many of those over the past couple years so each one is precious.
Today I'm having a 'fat' day. One of those damn days when every time you look in the mirror you despise what you see. (like you're wearing fat goggles that make you appear larger than you are) I've discovered that it doesn't matter how much you've lost or how amazing the changes, it's inevitable that at some point your brain will trick you into believing it hasn't been good enough. It's all perception, this whole life is based on perception... isn't that strange. I know that this feeling, this image, will pass so I'm trying to use it as motivation to do even better today. Yesterday Easter candy may have gotten the better of me. Calories were fine, and I only had a bite here and there, but those bites will get ya. Over fifty grams of sugar yesterday, that's quite a bit for me. I have resolved to do better today, and started my day with a trip to the gym.
I'm trying to stay as on track as possible because the days ahead are going to be tricky. Saturday after clinical my father in law is taking my out to a buffet for my birthday. I would never complain, or ask to go elsewhere; It's so kind of him to make my birthday a priority in the first place. I have done perfectly fine at buffets before so I'm not overly concerned. (but still, yikes) Sunday after clinical the group and I are going out for margaritas. Yes, margaritas. I have earned the shit out of those margaritas lol, and I intend to partake to the fullest. It's my last hoorah with these people, and I have learned so much from/with them. It will be bittersweet.
If I can survive all of that, then Tuesday is my actual birthday. Lunch with my wonderful daughter (who is eleven and will be home by default because she has a doctor appointment) at the place of my choosing. Class in the evening. I should be able to stay one hundred percent on track that day. And I'm sure the following weekend my husband will take me out and someone will bake a cake, ughhhh. NOT COMPLAINING, again, so grateful that these people see my existence as something worth celebrating, it's just going to take a lot more restraint than when I'm fully in charge of meals.
It'll be good though, right? Well, we're going to find out :)
As I walk through the valley of the shadow of leftover Easter candy and birthday celebrations I shall fear no carbohydrate.
Have a wonderful day my friends :)
